DOGMATIC HEADCOLLAR PADDED CUSHIONED WEBBING PCW DM ADJ (3L, Red)

Used a smaller size initially but as my dog grew felt it was time to invest in the next size up. Love this head collar as it gives me full control of my (sometimes) reactive GSD. It’s easy to put on and he’s never managed to get it off unlike some other head collars. It’s well made and because of its design it doesn’t ride up into his eyes. The dogmatic is a bit more expensive but I feel well worth it.

I have a strong willed Bracco Italiano. With a harness she froze and wouldn't move and once she was moving would pull my arm out my socket and if she saw another dog would jump and lurch to get to it by any means. We have been working very hard on training, but being a scent dog food is not of interest when the big wide world smells so good. I was despairing. I didn't want to walk her and wondering how we could meet her needs. I can only tell you my experience with my peculiar dog... but this product is AMAZING. When it arrived, she was interested in it and was very happy to have it put on. I thought we would have problems, but she seemed very comfortable. Then I walked her outside. I could hold the lead with two fingers just guiding her with direction. I can not believe the instant transformation and really hope that if you purchase you get the same results. My dog walking friends can't believe it is the same dog. She is calm and even will take the odd snack. I can loose lead walk and have much more confidence. We still need to train when meeting other dogs, but I have better control because I can divert her head away, rather than ineffectively pulling an entire strong resisnt body away. Mind blown by how this product has changed our dog walks!

Expensive, but comfortable for my black Lab, Connie, and effective. She used to be amenable to staying with us but might pull your shoulder out if she spotted a canine friend. She is now so easy to walk that I can trust her not to inadvertently injure anyone who walks her who happens to weigh less than the average truck. Connie did not know what to make of it when I first put it on, and it looks like a muzzle in some respects, but allows her to carry things and catch reward biscuits - a vital component for training Labradors!

Bought this harness as I regularly meet another lady walking a large dog who wears one. My 52kg malamute x GSD is used to wearing a Halti so didn't really notice any difference and made no fuss. I was very happy with the Halti in that it stopped him pulling my arm out of its socket but this new harness is more like a bridle and stays put! (The Halti did have a habit of moving about and "squidging" his jowls up if he suddenly lunged - which he is prone to doing for squirrels/cats). My reason for 4 and not 5 stars is that this is, comparatively, an expensive item but a few stiches look a bit loose already and I'm concerned it won't last as long as I had hoped. The sizing was absolutely spot on - I went for the recommended size according to breed - and it fitted perfectly without any need for adjustment whatsoever.

The Dogmatic is often overlooked! It's better than other headcollars as it's stable and doesn't move around! I have 3 dogs using one including my springer who was a really strong and bad puller before the dogmatic!I tried the canny and halti and because they slipped he actually ripped all of the fur from his nose!Since the Dogmatic he walks beautifully! No pulling! He's really good, making him a pleasure to walk now instead of a battle!Please note, order the right size for your dog and you do have to put in some training, it isn't an instant cure! But 1/2 the battle is gone!

Bought 2 for my retrievers , got one out the packet to try and wasnt impressed at all so returned them.Refund for one was refused , still awaiting refund for the other one ?Very poor customer service.

It works, controls the dog and stops his pulling. The downside, it doesn't seem to matter how tight it is fitted, if he wants to slip it, he does, twice so far, once on the road when he saw another dog. It doesn't seem comfortable for the dog, pushes up against his eye resulting in him trying to claw it off. We keep his usual collar on him and it's a shame there is no fastening to clip it to his usual collar, so if he slipped it then he would still be secured to the lead. Overall, it works and we continue to use it, just has a couple of design flaws, it's far better than others we have used.

I bought this for my 11 month old Labrador who loves to pull! He was used to walking with a Gentle Leader but it was riding up into his eyes. This Dogmatic one is great, it stays put, and I have total control of my boy's head with minimal effort. He seems to like it and walks well on it. It is easy to put on. More expensive than some, but highly recommendable for strong willed heavy dog!
